Hey all! I'm helping family to plan a trip and the last leg of the trip is still up in the air. They'll be arriving a the cruise ship port in Ravenna the morning of August 16th, and need to be back in Rome to catch a flight the morning of August 19th, so a total of three days. They initially wanted to do a train ride up to Austria, though I advised that is probably trying to cram too much into too little time, and now they're asking for ideas.

There is some stated interest in seeing Venice and/or Florence, but they aren't set on anything in specific.

They are a group of six with ages ranging from teens to adults to retirees.

Is it worth trying to make a day trip out of multiple cities on the way back to Rome, or would it be better to just focus on one more destination? Any suggestions on which might work best for a group that's kind of indecisive and just looking for an idea of, if you're going to be in this region then this is what you should see at a minimum, if that makes sense.

Will be arriving at LAX from an international flight in the middle of the week, around 1pm. Looking to get an idea on how much buffer I should give myself between arrival and getting on another domestic flight. I do have Global Entry and TSA Precheck.

Thanks for any advice!

I own a property which has an access easement/shared driveway on one side benefiting the neighboring lot. The existing gravel driveway is about 15 feet wide, crossing over a culvert where it meets the main road.

The new owners of the property are wanting to modify the driveway to a 20 foot wide paved driveway with a wider approach at the road to make it easier to accommodate long vehicles (such as a horse trailer) when turning to and from the main road.

I'm reluctant to sign off on this change because the proposal would require removing some landscaping and alter the character of the property. They seem to be hinting that they believe they have the right to make these alterations since it all lies within the access easement, however my point of view is that their access is not blocked - the existing driveway will accommodate long vehicles just fine, their proposed changes are just to make it easier. It's also my understanding that as the property owner it's my decision on whether or not to allow the driveway to be changed from gravel to paved and that the access easement does not give them free reign to modify it to their desires.

I'd like to resolve the issue with them without having to bring in actual lawyers if possible however if they are insistent I will do so to ensure my rights as property owner are protected. But before doing so I wanted to see if anyone had any friendly advice on whether my understanding of the situation is accurate or if I'm way off.

For those of you who have/wear partials with feet, what do you wear with it? Pants/leggings that get tucked into the foot? Loose fitting or flared pants that go over the "ankle" of the foot? Let a little skin show? Something else?

Just curious what folks are doing!

You've been invited to take part of a relatively simple game. You, and 99 strangers selected from relatively similar socio-economic conditions as yourself, are invited to a large conference room. You watch a short presentation in which all participants are told the rules of the game, during which a display case with $100,000 cash is shown. In two hours, a door will open and participants will exit the conference room one by one. Upon leaving, they will be given the opportunity to press a button marked "forfeit" to voluntarily forfeit their share of the prize. Once everyone has been given the opportunity, all participants who did not press the button will split the $100,000 evenly. Participants will not be able to see who pressed the button on the way out. During the next two hours they may discuss amongst themselves what they plan to do.

The twist is that you, and only you, have been given extra information. If all of the participants press the forfeit button, then each participant will instead be awarded with $1 million each instead of dividing up the $100,000 prize pool. You will be the last participant to be presented with the button, and like the rest, will not know if anyone else has pressed it or not.

Given those rules of the game, what's your strategy?
